Once again, I am forwarding this message to all of the music related lists that i am on, because this pertains to all who buy music. The original message originated on the Alanis Morissette list, "Can't Not" (for info: cantnot@juno.com) this message contains original material written by me at the end. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>Has anyone heard of KTS Records?? They have two really neat >>Alanis CDs that are not available anywhere else. >>(Kara ) >KTS sells what are commonly known as "bootlegs". Though as far as bootlegs >go, they are one of the most respected labels as their quality usually >matches that of commercial releases. Bootlegs do normally run between $20 >and $30 for a single disc so their price of $22 is quite reasonable. >I however would be reluctant to order from overseas. There is a crackdown >on bootleg CD's by the record association (RIAA) and government agencies >and I would be concerned about my order passing thru customs. >Depending on where you live, you can normally find bootlegs in smaller >indie record stores. >(Stephen Wiener ) - ------------------------------------------------------------------- i went into my favorite local independent record store today to look around and possibly buy a few things and i noticed that all of the bootleg cd's that normally cover the wall were gone, replaced with UK cd singles. i asked the manager why (he know's me, i'm in there all the time) and he said that his distributer got busted and that the busters are out looking... so, he pulled all of his off the wall and sent them away. he says they may never be back on that wall again. and he said because of this, it will be the same way all over the city.. no bootlegs anywhere. just thought i'd let you know... this really is happening! (i live in atlanta!) that's all for now. oh yeah, in case you care what i bought: Patti Rothberg "Inside" UK CD single (includes 2 live tracks) Lenny Kravitz "The Resurrection - live" UK 10" limited edition vinyl (completes the "Circus" 10" vinyl limited edition box set) - -rusty - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- POE has a mailing list now! for info: angry-psychos-request@smoe.org JOAN OSBORNE "The Early Recordings" US release date 11/5!

I've been looking for it everywhere. It's out of print so I'm trying to find someone who has it and doesn't want it or some used record store that might have it. Also I'm looking for Tori's first song produced, Baltimore, produced under the label of MEA Records (Myra Ellen Amos). If you know of anyone or anyplace that has these could you let me know? Thanks.
